The Avengers

What?! The Avengers?! Yes! The Avengers!

It’s a movie that, by its very nature, is aimed at children. It contains popular superheroes from several other popular movies – which were also aimed at children – as they team-up to fight an alien invasion that is being led by the Asgardian rogue Loki.

It should come as no surprise, then, that the one scene that really isn’t suitable for children in this movie involves Loki himself. He uses language that really shouldn’t have made it past the censors and there must surely have been a lot of complaints since the movie’s release.

Example: Loki and Black Widow are discussing Loki’s motives and Black Widow’s past, when Loki’s tone takes a turn for the angry. He uses a crude word that refers to female genitalia – it’s actually about as bad as language gets, but it’s so infrequently used in today’s culture that it escaped the censors!

Loki: This is my bargain, you mewling qu*m!
Black Widow: You’re a monster!
